I have an HPX 4X4 Trail Gator that I purchased used about a year ago. Since then, I have had a bit of clutch trouble (it has been replaced) and now, all of a sudden, it will not seem to go into gear at all (I literally stopped, put it in neutral, turned it off, came back 10 minutes later, started it and it would not shift).

The Mechanic at my local John Deere Dealer does not want to tear into the transmission to find out what's wrong. He would rather replace the whole transmission.

Has anyone else ever had something like this happen?
